Description:

From a young age, ballet had enthralled Junpei Murao, sparked by a mesmerizing male ballet dancer at his sister's recital. However, Junpei refused to let anyone see him as effeminate, hiding his passion for ballet behind "manly" activities such as soccer and Jeet Kune Do, determined to follow in his father's footsteps as a stunt coordinator. One day, Junpei is caught showcasing his unique kick that merges ballet and Jeet Kune Do by his classmate, Miyako Godai. She recruits him to join her mother's ballet studio, but Junpei initially resists. Despite abandoning his formal pursuit of ballet, he cannot shake off the transcendent joy it brings him. Breaking free from the constraints of hypermasculinity is easier said than done. Junpei must fully commit to ballet, prepared to make sacrifices and risk losing his friends.
